I ventured over to the other Bowhunters gear review and there were lots of complaints. Now i ain't rich but i figure that i can afford to harvest a deer per B'Head and not cry because that B'Head is no longer usable due to a bent or broken blade or ferrule. Heck folks whats the real deal with those guys! []They just need to use our Bows to know how good a B'Head will hold up!
I have always thought that was odd too. I just assume the boradhead and arrow is gonna get wrecked after shooting a deer. If it doesn't then cool. collateral damage.
I guess I'm a little different than you guys because I don't like destroying a bolt or a b'head on one deer.
I had one bolt/b'head combo that I made 14 kills with, 12 deer, 1 turkey and a fox. Got a couple in my quiver now with multiple kills.

MORE than happy to sacrifice a broadhead and arrow for a deer. I waste a few on the block before the season and considering all the crap I end up buying no big deal.
I also shoot mechs that really just don't have much interest in having their blades changed. I would expect that barry shoots a pretty solid fixed head blade and takes the time to tune and sharpen them but I can't be bothered.
I hope to waste a few new broadheads this season.

i have no problem with sacrificing a broadhead on a deer. I sacrificed a brand new spitfire and a rage tonight on a doe. The price tag is hard 2 bite but its worth it!

Yea.. the Spitfires are a little salty. But so is the blood trail they produce!
That was one of the things that I liked about the G5 Tekan II's. Easy to resharpen and I could reuse them, was wanting to do the how many deer with one arrow trick. With all that said the one I took the button buck with is still on the shelf and I have a new one in my quiver. I do not consider buying a pack of heads every season a problem, but I have never used more than a pack in one season so it is no biggie for me. Maybe in some areas where guys a whacking alot I might want to do it more, but do big push for me right now.
